New Owner - 2004 CLK55

Hey guys!

Just signed the papers on a 2004 CLK55 last week with 52,000kms. Traded in the SLK350 for it...

Getting it shipped in from Alberta, can't wait. Should be here in the next few weeks...

Always wanted this pillarless beauty Not to mention an AMG!

First thing I'm going to do is a quad exhaust conversion

Congrats! Good to find one from Alberta as well, not much salt on the roads compared to the east.

Thanks everyone

The fender badges say 5.5 AMG which the previous owner put on. I'm going to leave it.

Pic of the winter setup


Going to the exhaust shop tomorrow for a full dual setup with quad tips

Nice. Other than quad exhausts, what other "mods" are you planning to do (if any)?

Thanks!!

I think I'm done with mods for now. Just going to enjoy the car.

Everyone is telling me to lower it but I really like how comfortable it is right now so i might not do it.

Would love a set of headers and tune though

Two things;

1. Aftermarket HU swaps in the pre-facelift 209's sure look right at home, yours looks great.
2. Love the MB flash-drive

I was a little skeptical about how an aftermarket head unit would look since I like the OEM COMAND. But yeah it sure does look good doesn't it

MB Flash drive is only fitting
